As the reporters approached his table, Ryan Riess looked up and says, "Watch, I'm about to double up." The dealer was just finishing her riffle, and Riess added, "and It's going to be Jeff over here." Jeff Fielder ws sitting on Riess's immediate left, in the big blind as Riess was in the small blind.

The dealer pitched out all the cards, and action folded to Riess, who peeled back one card and moved all in for 6,550. Fielder, in the big blind, looked at his first one and said, "No good." He then looked at his second one and said, "I call."

Ryan Riess showed the one card he looked at, which was the {a-Diamonds}, and Fielder showed {a-}{5-Spades}. Riess then peeled back his other card, revealing the {q-Clubs}.

The board ran out {j-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{a-Clubs}, and as both players were having a good laugh, Riess got the double-up he predicted. If he wasn't such a talented and successful poker player, one would suggest he start a psychic network of sorts.
